INTRODUCTION
' ' A people which takes no pride in the noble
" achievements of remote ancestors will never
" achieve anything worthy to be remembered
" with pride by remote descendants."
— Macaulay' s History of England.
The accompanying lists of officers, who served during the War of
1812-15, are compiled from the records of the grants of land made in
Upper Canada to officers, non-commissioned officers and men who had
served in " the first flank Companies, the Provincial Artillery, the
Incorporated Regiment, the Corps of Artillery Drivers, the Provincial
Dragoons, the Marine and General Staff of the Army,"* and in Lower
Canada, to " the officers and men of the Embodied Militia, discharged
troops and others."**
All those who participated in the Prince Regent's Bounty, as
these land grants were called, are indicated by a star in front of their
respective names.
The names of those who received land grants as above have been
supplemented by names from pay lists, appointments and promotions
as published in Militia Orders, returns, petitions and correspondence
in the office of the Archivist and Keeper of the Records, Arthur G.
Doughty, C. M. G., L. L. D., to whom and his assistant officers I am
more than indebted for the facilities and courtesy which have always
been afforded me in my searches.
The foot notes, in addition to what could be obtained at the
Archives, have been gathered from Army Lists, Obituaries in local
newspapers, military magazines, etc., etc.
The sources of information from whence the names of the
'Militia General Order, 21st January, 1820.

"Growler" and "Eagle" from Lake Champlain, having each 11 guns

I feel particular pleasure in thus publicly making known my
high approbation of this gallant young officer's conduct, and with a
wish to reward his meritorious exertions I have promoted that officer
to the rank of Lieutenant. Mr. Hawksworth and George Barnet
(seaman,) who accompanied Mr. Harvie, have evinced a zeal highly
creditable to themselves.
I take this opportunity of assuring all the officers of this squad

13th August, 1814.
Morning D.G.O.
Lieutenant-General Drummond congratulates the Army on the
brilliant achievements executed last night by Capt. Dobbs of the
Royal Navy and a party of seamen and marines, who, in the most
gallant style, boarded, and after a short struggle carried two of the
enemy's armed schooners anchored close to Fort Erie. Accident alone
prevented the capture of the third schooner. Those captured are the
"Somers" and "Porcupine." The former mounts two long 12-pounders,
and the latter one 12. They were commanded by Lieutenants, and
had on board 35 men each.
The Lieutenant-General laments to find that Lieut. Radcliffe,
Commander of His Majesty's schooner "Netley," has fallen on this
occasion. He was killed in the act of boarding. He will be buried
at 12 o'clock, with such marks of respect as circumstances will permit.
Besides Mr. Radcliffe, our loss has been only one seaman killed and
four wounded.
The enemy's loss is one seaman killed, four wounded.
The whole enterprise reflects the highest credit on the ability
and spirit of Captain Dobbs, and the gallant party under his com
mand. The Lieut. -General felt convinced that it would not fail, from
the spirited manner in which it was undertaken. He takes this

Office of the Adjutant-General of Militia,
QUEBEC, 20th July, 1820.
Militia General Order.
The Governor-in-Chief1 feels great satisfaction in having it in
his power to deliver to the officers commanding the Incorporated
Militia during the late war those Colours which His Majesty had
been most graciously pleased to order to be presented to their Battal-
lions, as an expression of His Royal Approbation of their services
when called upon in defence of their country.
His Excellency is not ignorant of the particular circumstance
which led to this particular honor being promised to these battalions,
and, as considerable delay has unavoidably happened, he thinks it a
favorable opportunity of declaring to the Militia of Lower Canada, by
General Order, his perfect confidence in their spirit and zeal when
called upon.
He will direct his attention in a particular manner to encourage
and uphold the spirit of patriotism, which he esteems the best and
surest defence of the country.
These Colours having been received too late to be delivered to
the different battalions before they were disembodied at the Peace, it
is His Excellency's pleasure that they should be placed in the charge
of the undermentioned officers* until required. The Colours are
lodged with the Adjutant-General of Militia, from whom the respec
tive officers will receive them on application.
The officers commanding battalions or divisions will communi
cate this General Order to the officers and militiamen under their
orders.
By order of His Excellency the Governor-in-Chief.
